Greetings
I have 3 children,my oldest son was diagnosed with DCD, my youngest son has been diagnosed with ASD and my daughter is undergoing assesment for ASD.
Since being involved in the long process of obtaining a diagnosis of my children, and gaining a comprehensive understanding of the spectrum I have come to the conclusion that it is firmly me that has passed the gene (for want of a different term) onto my children
My childhood was extremely difficult and I seem to have developed coping mecahanisms over the years. However as expected I have been unable to hide from my wife, who firmly beleives I am on the spectrum.
My quandry is that at aged 46 is there any benefit seeking a diagnosis. I feel I would like some kind of diagnosis rather than the continuous feeling that I was always just weired and odd (and still am)
Ive never really spoke with anyone about it (other than with my one in a million wife)
Many thanks
